World Wrestling Entertainment SVOD Service Scores Comcast...

World Wrestling Entertainment’s subscription video-on-demand service, WWE 24/7 On Demand, is now available on Comcast, the largest cable operator in the U.S.

WWE 24/7 On Demand is offered up as part of Comcast’s ON DEMAND lineup, featuring 40 hours of wrestling-related programming each month, including classic matches, behind-the-scenes coverage, wrestler profiles and more, in six categories. They are Hall of Fame, an original monthly series celebrating the career of a featured Hall of Fame inductee; Big Ones, with classic pay-per-view events; Specials spotlighting the best of the WWE's programming originally created for network or video release; ECW, tracking the evolution of ECW; Prime Time with classic WWE shows like Tuesday Night Titans; and Shorties, with a collection of epic feuds, infamous promos, parodies and more. The WWE On Demand service taps into the 75,000-hour library of programming from WWE (World Wrestling Entertainment), NWA (National Wrestling Alliance), ECW (Extreme Championship Wrestling), AWA (American Wrestling Association) and Smoky Mountain Wrestling archives.

Beginning this month, Comcast Digital Cable customers can subscribe to WWE 24/7 On Demand for $7.99 per month.

"Comcast's ON DEMAND service has transformed the way people watch television, and WWE 24/7 will do the same for the millions of wrestling fans across the country," said Page Thompson, the SVP and GM for video services at Comcast. "With anytime access to thousands of great matches and wrestling shows, viewers can relive the rich history of the WWE and enjoy their favorite moments whenever they want."

Shane McMahon, WWE’s executive VP of global media, added, "Now, WWE fans and Comcast customers from across the country can relive the classic wrestling moments and enjoy the exploits of their favorite Superstars from yesteryear. WWE 24/7 On Demand will bring The Iron Sheik, Sgt. Slaughter, Jesse Ventura and Greg Valentine back to life for the seasoned fans and introduce our massive archive of rarely seen material to a whole new generation. This is the first of many ways we hope to bring more new content to our fans with partners like Comcast."
